Pygmalion Lyrics

i'm dirty
i'm food on the ground
i'm lonely
will i ever be found?
i'm sorry
that i'm not what i'm supposed to be

could you help me?
make me shiny and new
like a baby.
can i talk just like you?
could you maybe
help me change my altitude?

i'm dirty
i'm food on the ground
i'm lonely
will i ever be found?
i'm sorry
that i'm not who i'm supposed to be

could you help me?
make me shiny and new.
like a baby
can i talk just like you?
could you maybe
help me change my altitude?

i want to sleep
want to wake up with you standing over me.
i want to bathe
want to scrub 'til there's nothing left of me.

way too late
oh, way too late

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
